Why do zoomers think buying obsolete gadgets is going to cure them of their internet addiction and executive dysfunction?
>>108510014>ADHD is awesomeShe's either self-diagnosing and doesn't actually have it, has a very mild version of it or is coping.ADHD is an actual disability. It just makes every aspect of life way harder. From academics, to work, to exercising, to daily chores, to even just talking to people without seeming like you don't give a fuck because you keep interrupting and not listening when they talk. It also makes you more neurotic as you remember th me feelings of struggle more than the feeling of the reward that resulted from the struggle, so most people that have it never achieve even 10% of their actual potential because they just never even try to do hard things, as it doesn't feel rewarding to them.It makes me so mad when faggots that likely just have tiktok brain talk about it like a personality quirk instead of what it actually is, a disability.
>>108510014They also only started doing it after it became a trend. They have no thoughts of their own. Once it stops being a trend they'll stop "caring" about this sort of thing.
Y2K zoomie here, it is a self control issue. My phone is a barren wasteland, and what I tend to do in my ADHD rushes is:>check app updates>play Solitaire>browse the webEven if I were to ditch the web browser, which I once attempted to but found myself reinstalling it just to check some shit on the go, I'd still be frantically checking app updates and playing Solitaire just to keep myself busy. I don't doomscroll social media on my phone, at most I'll read a forum thread or tech news articles. It's all up to me to stop doing that but I lack the self-control to do so.So yeah, dumbphones won't fix the issue. Back when I had one I would play J2ME games on it anyways.
>>108510441everyone who posted before me is wrongit's the sneed oils causing hypothyroidism which leads to adhd. being able to sit still is actually a sign of high energy, specifically located near the frontal lobe, which is an especially privileged part of the brain to have well fed at all times. zoomers eat so much goyslop they develop poor metabolic rates leading to worsened energy levels despite higher caloric intake
hey guys, jvscholz here, so i found ten new productivity knick-knacks
Nvidia is the Apple/Nike/Mcdonalds of GPUs. People buy them because they don't know better but they go with the "brand name" premium.
>>108525026AMD is jeet coded. Not using it sorry!
>>108527393Mcdonalds is completely pointless now. It's expensive and it sucks. You're better off ordering chilis or applebees to go if you want fast food. It will be better goyslop for the same price
>>108527426Isn't every fast food chain overpriced as shit? It's still fast food, the absolute lowest bottom of the barrel in food service>>108527453"Eating out" is not the same thing as buying ingredients and cooking yourself, they're inherently different concepts. A McDonalds in a Walmart is the trashiest, cheapest, saddest way to eat out that I can imagine.
>>108527855Walmart and major chains carry fast food stuff now in the frozen/pantry section. If you want checkers fries for example just buy a bag of it dont go to checkers.
>>108527878I suppose but again if you want to go eat out, a frozen mcdonalds burger doesn't get you that, it gets you driving back home and putting it in the oven to unfreeze and warm it and then eating back home in your kitchen.
What an odd thing to say.
>>108521336That disclaimer is only in the EU to avoid liability.
>>108521336You know what else is for entertainment purposese only? Watching this company burn itself to the ground.
>>108521336They are saying this because they don't want to get sued if someone does something retarded based on a conversation they had with an LLM.
>>108525264Yes. Soon they're going to make it end every sentence with "in Minecraft".
>>108522207I have too many questions to ask at this point. Better ignore it altogether. Strange though. As if someone in the Microslop is doing sabotage of crazy scale, but it was not uncovered for so long, despite it happens in plain sight...
Intel about to get flooded by jeets
Could somebody "in the know" tell me what is happening to this world/realm/zoo/similation we live in? What is the end goal?Because I am confused
>>108525496ARM is fine, smartphone vendors are the ones making goy shit. They'd do it with x86 if it were cheaper.
I work at an Intel fab AMA
>>108525251>HRjeets win. it's hilarious that companies are still making this mistake, especially ones that have chinese ceos. the chinese are the natural enemies of the jeet, and yet still here we are. lol. lmao, even.
>>108526521>you are a retard if you think having a bios and uefi has anything to do with the cpu architecture.the issue is having a single standard. this doesn't exist in arm like it does with x86.
oof
>>108526335I noticed it mainly while local streaming my games. I can use AV1 at longer distances without frame drops compared to H265 but no matter the range or bitrate it looks worse.
>>108526335If your encode was an older film with natural grain you have to tweak the AV1 settings to skip the denoise step.You will lose details in the original grain that the synthesize grain can't fake.
>>108521760>mistery
>>108527118sadly my encoder doesn't support that level of tweaking, it barely supports -cq options and a few presets.i could try with aom's reference implementation, but last time I tried I was getting 0.1fps on a regular 1080p track.
>>108523851>MPEG-LAgot bought 3 years ago
How dependent are you on the cloud? Does anybody do local backups any more?
>>108525458>how can you be so fucking dumb? Because I wasn't thinking about cp lol. I used to use onedrive for work and normie shit for years no problem, but didnt even know I had desktop syncing activated on my laptop.I was dumb, but also lucky that nothing else happened. People have gone to jail for way less, but thats one way I couldve fucked up my life I avoided.I still think the idea of Zeronet is cool, but not bothering with it ever again or anything like it
>>108525284You're gonna learn the hard way
>>108525439How does ProtonVPN detect that you are downloading CSAM and then ban you because of that? I thought they didn't track their customers.

my second hand t14g2 keys' texture is so smooth and shiny from greasy hand oils that it feels repulsing to use, can I do something about that. I also stripped half the fucking screws on this laptop, can I also do something about that

I want to buy a 14.2" MacBook Pro, but I can't decide on the chip. My tasks are:1. Various daily tasks, such as web browsing, potentially some multitasking.2. Software development, webshit and some C/C++/Go/Rust.3. DAW4. Image editing, no more than one 5000x5000 (or less) image at a time.5. 3D modeling, 3D animation, 3D rendering (if it's animated in the first place, then it's no more than 5-10 minutes).The choice is between the base M5, the M5 Pro and the M5 Max chips. M5 Max is obviously the best, but I've heard bad things about battery life, thermal throttling, fan noise of the M5 Max chip in the 14" chassis, so I'm really unsure about it. M5 Pro is next best thing, but it has a significantly weaker GPU, the M5 Max's GPU is twice as powerful. I'm not considering the base M5 too much, but I've decided to include it anyway.In general it feels a little weird to me how I got upsold to the M5 Pro from the base M5, but I can't figure out at all whether I want to go to the M5 Max even though the increase in price is roughly the same.What do you suggest?
>>108526344>the same cpu core amountI know, but I have 3D rendering as a use case>Just buy the 16 inchI'm buying the 14 inch specifically
>>10852640014 inch has worse cooling, it's not enough for the 40core gpu in MAX version, it will overheat and throttle the performance.buy used m3 ultra studio with 80 gpu cores.
>>108526126Because I've done everything OP listed (except 3d modeling) on a base M1 8/256 model somewhat comfortably.A M5 with 16+GB RAM and a 1TB SSD will be a significant upgrade over the M1.
>>108524734M5 Pro and Max are based on the Fusion Architecture and are cucked chips. The M4 series were the last good chips from Apple.
>>108524734care more about amount of ram than the chip
has anyone here managed to repurpose an android phone as a server? how have you handled the battery problem?
>>108516568I installed postmarketos on an old phone and it worked pretty well as a vpn to my home, I bought a micro usb to ethernet adapter and it almost worked out of the box, I had to disable wifi but it doesn't matter Don't use android, it sucks as a server

I didn't know this was possible. Thanks /g/
>>108527690Only if they use Debian.
Personally, I am using a laptop. Some ThinkPad models are not as modular. I have an X1 Carbon; it is very good. I enjoy being able to move around. Sometimes the couch is uncomfortable, so I want to sit at my desk. Sometimes the desk is uncomfortable, so I want to sit on the couch. I respect the quality of ThinkPads. Do you prefer laptops (not limited to ThinkPads) or desktops?
>>108526994that could happen at home too, except you're drunk and spill your vodka
>>108527306I quit drinking on new years eve so it won't happen to me
>>108527014>The point is to steal their powerThen bring your desktop with overclocked CPU in.
>>108527398They won't allow that. You have to have the covid barriers and a sob story, and even the loud ass sager is pushing it, but it's compliant with the rules.
>>108526638I am thinking of going this way soon. Current PC is getting on, ill just grab a laptop and hook it into my current monitors and peripherals.

>>108520679>>108521347>>108522862>>108522975Thanks for the inputs, the other models aren't available here I've got to admit the S24+ is really tempting, found a refurbished 512GB option that is supposedly in excellent condition for $540 (most are around ~$580 or higher), but then again it's Exynos and it seems I would be trading a considerable amount of power for a feature I might not get much fromSo I'm just going to settle for a safer(?) route with a new 512GB Poco F7Cheapest listing I found is at $610, normally I'd wait since apparently they also got a price hike because of the RAM inflation, but I'm kind of in a hurry, this A11 is so goddamn slow I'm losing my mind(The prices look absurd because of currency conversion, that's how much I suffer in my shithole)

Getting anything in the air us more expensive than on the ground. Pretty much the only expensive tech that makes sense is military radar or other dumb stuff. What are you going to do? Double sided tape a tablet to the bathroom wall?
>>108521521He is not greedy. He's a penny pinching slav-canuck. The reason he bought the plane was it was cheaper for him to do it than fly Air Canada. Literally.
I work for an avionics company that specializes in aftermarket modifications mid-tier luxury jets, so I have knowledge on this. There are a lot of things that are already installed pretty routinely on civilian aircraft, so maybe go fucking use Google and find out for yourself instead of asking a bunch of broke neets their very uneducated opinion.
>>108521510CS stands for Computer Science
>>108524505>it was cheaper for him to do it than fly Air Canada. Literally.Cheaper than first class. He got annoyed a jeet almost ruined a project because they couldn't understand air Canada's rules, then realized he's wealthy enough to buy a private jet.

Which one is the best if my main concern is the longevity and quality of the product? The oled version of the steam deck seems like the best pick but I feel it's dated. The legion go series is appealing with it's specs but I feel its lifespan and long-term quality would be worse.
>>108524758like wii u tablet x2
>>108523928>maid computer thread
I'd try to find a used ROG Ally/Ally X, or Steam Deck. Maybe used versions of the newer devices but they're so freaking expensive, kinda not worth it. Otherwise I'd wait for the next generation, maybe the panther lake handhelds will save us but I doubt it.
>>108523928probably the steam deck.i think both asus and lenovo abandoned their older handhelds already, meaning that they wont receive driver updates (i think linux drivers are still getting updated tho)also, the rog ally z1e felt very, very fragile to me. i had 2, one of them came with the right trigger broken and the other one had a "wonky" joystick. had to rma both of them.
>>108526666Steam, Steam OS, Steam Deck. Valve did set their own ecosystem in gaming.Then Steam MachineValve could release a laptop and it could potentially not just beat, but execute other gaming laptop competitors (or even go pro, dethroning System 76)
